Friday Music Blog-Romantic Christmas Songs

Welcome to the Friday Music Blog on Chief 187™Chatter. There are nine days left before Christmas so my mind is still firmly entrenched in the forthcoming holiday. And, as I

often state, music colors my mood, enhances my day, and livens up my home. During the Christmas Season it is music that is the thread that ties my holiday together. Every year I add new music to my collection, switch between my personal collection and listening to the radio for a broader selection, and bask in the sweet sounds. For those of you who are “over it”, I give you fair warning; this week and next are and will be Christmas-themed Friday Music Blogs.

This week’s focus is Christmas songs that are romantic. What songs would you consider romantic in nature and sets a mood of warmth, sensuality, and love? Be sure to include the artist.

Once again there is news about Chief 187™Chatter. Another follower drove the list up to 84 so that was exciting. For another week the numbers climbed at the site and 39,000 pageviews

was not only realized but surpassed on its way to 40,000! At the one year anniversary on September 13th this year I was celebrating 25,000 pageviews! I honestly never dreamed 40.000 would be in view as we closed 2011. My dear friend Atila told me 2012 was to be our year for our

respective careers. I’m beginning to believe him! I hope you continue to join me, read, comment, share, and enjoy all I have to write for the remainder of this year and beyond!

Please check back to this blog throughout the day and weekend to read the comments and selections. Weekends are an excellent time to catch up on all things Chief 187™. I will be posting yet another Gift Guide over the weekend so gather the lists up and hit the stores

both brick and mortar and online to get your Christmas/Holiday shopping out of the way. There are tons of great suggestions for all budgets and tastes. Finally I invite you back to this site on Monday as we begin another week of entirely new and original entries.

P.S. Shopping via Amazon? Please enter the site through my link located on the right hand sideboard. This costs you NOTHING extra yet nets me a tiny bit. Also, if you’d like to gift or

treat yourself to some Chief 187™ products, please check out my store at http://cafepress.com/Chief187. Not only are there over 60 items from which to choose, but there are coupon codes to save money. You may enter that site on the right hand sideboard as well. Thank you, as always, for your continued and much appreciated support.

And here's a really obscure song written by Randy Newman, and this sultry version sung by Claudine Longet (ex-wife of Andy Williams and murderer). While this has nothing to do with Christmas, it did appear in the BF Goodrich (A&M Records) "Something Festive" in 1968.

Two songs come immediately to mind: Santa Baby, though that's not really romance as much as sensuality and greed. But for a sensuous performance you can't beat Calista Flockharthttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1FN3U7OVlCU&feature=related

The other would be All I Want For Christmas is You, by Mariah Carey (NOT the one with Justin Bieber - that's just creepy) This one's nice. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M8YysO728Z8&feature=related

About Me

I am the Crew Chief of my family with myriad interests and a sincere desire to expand my friend base. I started as a prolific blogger on the NASCAR fan racing site Rowdy.com. In 2012 I created my own Motorsports radio show and website entitled Drafting the Circuits. As head writer, editor, social media specialist, PR, guest-securer, host, and on-air personality, I took the show to a position in Motorsports that netted my site access as media to major NASCAR Sprint Cup, Xfinity, and NCWTS events, ARCA races, the Indianapolis 500 and other IndyCar events, and the US Grand Prix at COTA in Formula 1! Currently I am writing a book that has nothing to do with Motorsports in my efforts to continuously evolve.
